I'm here to help you understand what your dog is trying to tell you and how to communicate with them from their perspective. Hav

ing studied and practiced dog psychology and behaviour for the past ten years I have a solid foundation in understanding dog behaviour and how to work with the dog to get the results you want. My mission is to help you learn and practice dog psychology so you can have a calm, balanced and fulfilled companion. Give me a shout for any questions or more info.

This post perfectly sums up the difference between training and dog psychology.

Dog training is fixed on the body or the position the dog is in but doesn’t focus on where the dog’s mind is.

Dog training focuses on the commands or tools (human based approach to teaching/communicating) whereas dog psychology focuses on energy and body language (how dogs communicate).

I love dog psychology because it comes from the dog’s perspective and how they naturally learn and communicate. We owe it to our dogs to communicate to them in a way they understand 💙🐾🐕

The state of mind I want when I’m cooking. They know not to be in the kitchen when I’m cooking. This is a rule. This is for safety and peace of mind. They’re more than welcome to clean up after I’m done 😆

Like everyone else I get caught up in the go go go. Thankfully my dogs help me slow down. On our walk today I let the dogs off to get some water and I was ready to go Keehta gentle reminded me to pause. So I listened and we took some time to sit and enjoy the river. Dogs have so much wisedom, we just have to slow down enough to listen.

One of the first things we get when we get a new dog or puppy is a leash. And the question that always comes up is what’s the best leash to get? Or which collar? Or do I get a harness?

The simple answer is the tool is only as good as the one using it. It ultimately comes down to YOU. It starts with your energy and then how you use it, knowing how to use it and why you are using it.

Training tip Tuesday, kennels don’t have to be scary places. They can be a place of relaxation and a spot to decompress, much like our bedrooms. The trick is how we introduce and show our dogs that it’s a place to chillax. Nanook loves the crate and goes in her’s and her sister’s all the time!

Monday Motivation, do you know how important it is to walk your dog?

Other than draining physical energy, the walk helps strengthen your bond with your dog. In human terms it’s like going on a date 🙂
Dogs have an instinctual need to move and migrate as a pack. We fulfill this need through a structured walk.

If you need help or want insight on walking your dog(s) shoot me a message. Happy walking everyone!
